LOOKING FOR TWO STORY STONE FARMHOUSE

A feature film that may choose the Hudson Valley region to film in the fall is looking for a two story stone farmhouse in disrepair, preferably on a hill with a long driveway leading up to it, with mountains in the distance. An adjacent barn would be a bonus but they are willing to build if necessary. If you have anything that meets these requirements, please email a photo with contact info and we will pass it on to the production, which is currently considering several other regions.
